Summer Camps @ HOL

The tables in the back yard - we stay outside as much as we can.
Our local splash pad - in camp we go once a day.

​
Hands on Learning expects to offer 2 weeks of summer camps for children entering Grade1 and above in September 2022.  
There will be a maximum of 5 children at each camp. The camps will be a mixture of outdoor time, art, crafts and hands-on activities.  Camp will be run with a minimum of four children.

Hands on Learners is home-based unlicensed childcare, in Woodbine Park (near Queen & Woodbine).

Two Camps will be run in July & August 2022:
  • Out and About Camp (July 4th to 8th) (3 spots left)
  • Magical Creatures Camp (Aug 29th to Sept 2nd) (please contact us to be added to the wait list)

​In the past we have offered: 

  • Potions Camp
  • Pirate & Mermaid camp 
  • Water and Ice camp 
​
Our goal is to be outside as much as possible, either in the garden or in the neighbourhood. (See the photos or our outdoor space above.)

If you have a group of four or five children and you would like Hands on Learners to run a camp tailored to your group, please talk to us.

Costs per camper are $350 per week which includes pizza on Friday, a snack every afternoon, and all craft supplies. Please note we have an abundance of good quality art supplies and crafts. If your child wants to make two or three of something, they can.  If you sign up for 2 or more camps then the cost of each camp is $300. The camp day is from 9am to 4pm. Extended hours are available for an extra fee.

The ratio is 1 teacher to a maximum of 5 children. We try to tailor the activities to the interests of the children ~ and we follow the direction of the children. For example, if it becomes clear that the children want to explore an activity or idea further ~ we do ~ we are very flexible!

One thing that in unique about our camps, is that we send photographs of your children via text throughout the day or in the evening, so you can share your child's camp experience.

Please note the schedule is flexible ~ if rain is forecast we change things around. Most days we complete three different activities ~ some days more and some days less.
